Safety is very important to operate nuclear power plant. To have the safety, nuclear power plant should be run without trouble. This paper presents the application of a failure diagnosis approach based on discrete event system theory to the Main Feedwater System for Safe Integral Reactor.

Background: Steam generator (SG) is one of the significant components in the nuclear steam supply system. A variety of SGs have been designed and used in nuclear reactor systems. Every SG has advantages and disadvantages. A brief account of some of the existing SG designs is presented in this study. A high surface to volume ratio of a SG is required in small modular reactors to occupy the least space. In this paper, performance improvement for SGs of integral small modular reactor is proposed. Aims/Methods: For this purpose, cross-grooved microfins have been incorporated on the inner surface of the helical tube to enhance heat transfer. The primary objective of this work is to investigate thermal-hydraulic behavior of the proposed improvements through modeling in RELAP5-3D. Results and Conclusions: The results are compared with helical-coiled SGs being used in IRIS (International Reactor Innovative and Secure). The results show that the tube length reduces up to 11.56% keeping thermal and hydraulic conditions fixed. In the case of fixed size, the steam outlet temperature increases from 590.1 K to 597.0 K and the capability of power transfer from primary to secondary also increases. However, these advantages are associated with some extra pressure drop, which has to be compensated.

일체형 원자로는 제어봉의 고장으로 인해 제어봉을 이용한 원자로 정지가 불가능한 경우 원자로에 붕산을 주입하여 정지시킨다. 일반적으로 붕산을 주입하는 방식은 붕산 분말을 물에 용해시켜 고농도의 붕산수를 만들어 저장하고 있다가 사용하는 것이다. 그러나 이와 같은 방식은 구성 기기의 수가 많고 구성이 복잡하므로 비경제적이며 운전과 계측제어 및 유지보수 측면에서 불리하다 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 단점을 개선하기 위해 붕산 분말을 원자로에 직접 주입하는 방식을 채택하였다. 붕산 분말을 원자로에 직접 주입하므로써 기기의 수가 줄어들고 계통의 구성, 운전 및 유지보수가 매우 단순해지고 경제적이다

Three small-break loss-of-coolant accident (SBLOCA) tests with safety injection pumps were carried out using the integral-effect test loop for SMART (System-integrated Modular Advanced ReacTor), i.e., the SMART-ITL facility. The types of break are a safety injection system line break, shutdown cooling system line break, and pressurizer safety valve line break. The thermal-hydraulic phenomena show a traditional behavior to decrease the temperature and pressure whereas the local phenomena are slightly different during the early stage of the transient after a break simulation. A safety injection using a high-pressure pump effectively cools down and recovers the inventory of a reactor coolant system. The global trends show reproducible results for an SBLOCA scenario with three different break locations. It was confirmed that the safety injection system is robustly safe enough to protect from a core uncovery.
